Based in The Old Glue Factory, Bow, The East London Liquor Company produce and import a range of quality handcrafted spirits including gin, vodka, rum, and whisky.
Premium Gin: Batch 2 is the second batch of premium gin from the East London Liquor Company and is once again a variation on their signature gin. Considered a premium gin, East London’s Premium Gin Batch No. 2 is distilled from 100% British wheat spirit and is infused with the following botanicals:
- Coriander
- Angelica Root
- Thyme
- Winter savory
- Fennel seeds
- Lavender
- Lemon Peel
- Sage
- Bay leaf
Distilled in a custom designed and hand-built Arnold Holstein still, it is bottled at 47% ABV and is handcrafted in small batches.
Design:
The bottle is simple in design and the label does have an East End feel to it. You could easily imagine this on the shelf of a 1920’s East End boozer and this only adds the strength of the brand.
Nose:
Subtle juniper with big savoury herbaceous notes.
Finish:
Hints of fennel and fresh lemon, dry and aromatic.
Recommended serve/garnish:
G&T with fresh sage leaf. Wet martini with dry martini garnished with a ‘gin-pickled cucumber’
Conclusion
In conclusion, this is a fantastic gin. It’s lovely when taken neat or with just a little water and of course, it makes a lovely refreshing G&T.
